Kyrgyz Charity Run by Powerful Family Received Suspicious Funds Linked to Murdered Money Launderer
Investigation
Nearly half of donations received by a well-known Kyrgyz charity run by the powerful Matraimov family have been linked to an illicit underground network.
Pravfond, a Russian legal-aid foundation for “compatriots” abroad, has continued to fund people and organizations across the European Union — even after it was sanctioned in mid-2023.
For over a decade, ‘Pravfond’ has been providing legal aid to Russians across the world. Internal emails obtained by journalists show how it collaborated with spies, funded propaganda efforts, and built points of influence along the way.
